Essays on Social Class

Introduction

Poverty refers to the condition in which a person lacks basic needs such as adequate food, clothing and shelter. According to the United States Census Bureau, “if a family's total income is less than the family's threshold, then that family and every individual in it is considered in poverty” (U.S. Census Bureau). Poverty is a constant issue and has increased in recent years. In India—my home country—there is 29.8% of people living below the poverty line. The poverty line is determined by the Census Bureau, which calculates the percentage by using a set of money incomes which ...

Introduction

The notion of social class, and its function within the various societies throughout the global community, has been well documented throughout time. In fact, this very concept is the very basis of the exhaustive work carried out by Karl Marx throughout his professional endeavors, and continues to be the basis for much conflict throughout society. Many make the effective argument, however, that class is a human construct and, as such, is not necessarily an institution that is endeared to human civilization for all time. Postmodernists, for example, make the content that class is actually dead, giving deference to a ...

Appealing to Audience: The Analysis of “Two Broke Girls”

Introduction For the last several years the television has been on the rise creating a product that can easily compete with the big screen movies.

Social Class and Education

Introduction

There is an increasing population in many regions of the world today. This increase comes with an increased diversification in the major sectors of the world including the political, social, and economic sectors. This diversification in these sectors contributes to the rapid development of social classes in these regions. The social classes are the various groupings in the societies with which particular individuals identify themselves. On the other hand, the increasing globalization and challenges in various political, social and economic segments have promoted the increase in the levels of education in various regions around the ...

Housing is one of the fundamental human needs because, in addition to providing shelter and the foundation of families, it also supports financial stability and wealth creation. Proper housing ensures quality living, a form of investment, and access to services like transport, education, health, security, financial, and employment (Thomas et al., 2018). Therefore, it is the center of economic stability. Unfortunately, there is a wide disparity in access to housing, where the whites have access to desired homes, while blacks are segregated to poorly developed settlements. The situation correlates with poverty and social inequality (Solomon et al., 2019). Therefore, it is ...

Personal experience with discrimination

Social and cultural diversity across the world affects how individuals are perceived and handled in different social settings. It is the quality of different cultures as opposed to monoculture across the global world. Even though the United States has made an outstanding effort to curb discrimination, traces of these acts still exist specially in the New York City (Belmont, 2011). This paper reflects my own personal experience both at my home town in New York City and abroad, regarding personal biasness and discrimination that I have experienced in different social settings upon factors such as race, gender, religion, socioeconomic ...

OUTLINE

These slides attempt to estimate the extent of the problem, and point out that teenage alcohol use is probably half of what it was in 1975. It has been declining for twenty years, due in part to raising the drinking age and public education campaigns against drunk driving.

Some studies tend to overestimate this problem, which is actually a declining one.

One fairly recent estimate places the number of heavy drinkers in age 12-to-21 group at 2 million and the number of alcoholics at about 1.1 million, but these estimates vary widely by age, social class, ethnicity, location and how the questions are framed.

Almost certainly there are far more ...

Question1

Coontz and Folbre cite that 1996 welfare legislation aims to promote marriage and some cities provide bonuses to couples (Risman 18). Some legislators request congress to divert project fund to marriage programs to increase the rates of marriage. The current administration increases the spending of marriage to ensure those languishing in poverty get married. Policymakers voice that failure to marry results in child poverty (Risman 22).Coontz and Folbre give evidence that marriage has social and economic benefits. The married couples ensure children benefit from a higher standard of living (Risman 23). This plan to reform the marriage fails to ...

In what ways did American progressivism/liberalism draw from and change previous elements of American political thought, starting with the Populists and continuing through the New Left? Are there tensions within this broad movement?

Over the past century, the US has seen the stage being set for modern liberalism. This has been done by the progressive assault on the binding constitutionalism which had been set by the founders. By pin pointing the exact drawbacks, the movers have been in a position to address a number of areas that needed to be addressed. To understand the metamorphosis, one should visualize the changes ...

1) Explain the Systems of Stratification beginning with SLAVERY; be thorough, ESPECIALLY WITH THE CLASS SYSTEM.

When social inequality prevails in the society then stratification arises. Stratification paves the way to the unequal power, authority and rewards. Poverty is the biggest cause of stratification, and it arises because of the class system prevailing in the society that paves the way to the ascribed and achieved statuses. On the ascribed status, the individual does not have any control. Examples are the race and sex. The achieved status is acquired by an individual on the basis of efforts, abilities and ...

The Wife of Bath is undoubtedly one of the most interesting characters in the entire collection of Canterbury Tales. She is interesting not only to the readers, but also to the writer himself, Geoffrey Chaucer. The Wife of Bath is the only character to have a prologue longer than their tale.

Throughout her tale, she consistently and repeatedly reveals that she is a sly and crafty liar. The reader may question the authenticity of her ...

- All socioeconomic groups have common needs and desires. However, according to Maslow’s hierarchy of needs physiological needs take precedence over all others. The strain theory states that societal pressures cause defiant behavior by individuals in pursuit of socially acceptable goals, such as money. Every socioeconomic group puts pressure on its members to succeed in making money but that the pressure is higher in lower income groups. If you have everything that you need already the pressure to have more is reduced and our most basic needs change.

Inside and Outside: Moral Goodness In Three Short Stories by John Updike

John Updike’s early short fiction written during the period between the late 1950s and mid 1970s confronts the issue of morality in post-World War II America. Updike wrote in his novel Rabbit, Run, “Goodness lies inside, there is nothing outside. . .” (325). Updike’s fiction shares in common the theme of inner goodness confronted with a world where morality is empty. In three of Updike’s short stories, “The Happiest I've Been,” (1958), “A&P,” (1960), and “Problems,” (1975) the author treats the subject of morality in three different but connected ...

1. Economics

The economy of America has been one that clearly segregates the different ethnic and racial diversities through what it awards and takes from them. Black Americans have been on the receiving end of the oppressive policies of the economy by receiving higher interest rates on loans and getting twice as less approval for loans and mortgages as compared to their white counterparts. Oliver and Shapiro assert that “while income inequality is problematic, inequality of wealth is understudied” (Oliver & Shapiro 1995, 16). The races have been treated differently, and whites have dominated in most of the sectors of ...

The Field Of Struggle for State Power to Understand Of Ethnic Group in the Southeast Turkey

The Kurdish community is a minority group living in Turkey. They are believed to be the largest ethnic group that are not recognized by any state.

There is no shortcut to success. It is when ordinary people rise beyond their normal expectation to become successful. Studying and working hard leads to success. However, research has it that social-class shapes the future of an individual regardless of the race. Annette Lareau in her book, Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race and Family Life, argue that social class and parenting approaches significantly have impacted on educational and work outcomes (Lareau 2003). It is this particular sentiment that captured my attention. It makes me reflect back to my childhood life, I realize that I didn’t grow up with a sense ...

Positionalty has been a complex term to understand by many people, many people argue basing on their own perceptions in life. What matters most how do people view you as a person, how do they describe, for instance, as students, we interact with one another.

We position people depending on so many things this may include gender, race, and culture as well as the socio-economic class. We all have different positionalities and our own bias based on epistemology. Thank God, to education as it tries to ...

Introduction

In a marketing sector, consumer sort themselves into groups based on the products and services they like, their leisure spending characteristics, and their chosen method of spending income (Solomon 227). The current theories of consumption and lifestyle show consumption to play a vital role in the construction and maintenance of personal identity. Consumers sustain their identity by playing around with consumers’ lifestyles that seem easier to adopt. Present day consumers show unpredictable consumption characteristics that are unpredictable, expressive, individualized and more competent. Every culture consists of a group of people expressing some general needs, values, or lifestyle with different consumption patterns. These ...

A Hung Parliament

Before the dust had settled in the 2010 general election the general consensus was that a Conservative government was inevitable. The general public was confident that the Labour Party and its leader did not stand a chance in the 2010 elections.

Is Firing Bad Teachers the Real Solution to the De Facto Segregation in the U.S. Education System?

In “Why We Must Fire Bad Teachers”, Evan Thomas and Pat Wingert have once again identified a very old problem in the U.S. education system, that there is a huge distinction in education quality and outcomes based on class and race in this country. There always has been, and in reality it is still a system that is very highly segregated by race and social class. All the concerns about low graduation rates and falling test scores over the last thirty years are actually a ...

Social Distance Theory

Social distance can be described as a propensity to approach or withdrawal from a group. The division of people based on a social class, ethnicity, race, and gender can be described as a social distance that prevails within or out of the societies. The differentiated behavior of people that leads them to their segregation with another person or persons of the society is a social distance (Prandy, 2003). For instance if a person is not able to mix up due to race, gender, ethnicity or social class then he will be regarded as a person who is socially distant from another member living in a society. Such a ...

This paper will examine the Australian social perspective from the nonprofessional’s point of view before undertaking a deeper socio-economic analysis. On the surface, Australians would like to believe that they are classless but in fact, they are subject to the classes that are inherent in a capitalist society.

We will also use the writings of other scholars such as to chronicle how the ruling class developed in Australia and how it has affected everyday life of the people in terms of the distribution of power.

I am in agreement with your posting about Native Americans receiving back some of the land that once was their own. It is sad, but true, that the majority of Native Americans live in conditions that are sub-standard when compared to the average United States citizen. The Native Americans do not want government hand-outs, instead they are most interested in self-sufficiency. In the reading from the Rosenblum text, another action that may help the cause of which you speak is writing an effective constituaent letter (Rosenblum & Travis, 2012). The text also discusses an effective way to set up a ...

America has undergone systematic and dynamic changes in their cultural organization and mentalities. For a long period now, the journey for equality of races and creeds has constituted the American dream. From as early as 1900s during the Harlem Renaissance to the social Lutheran activism, the journey has been long (Eichar, 1989). This essay attempts to outline the progress of this call for equality based on the American social class, and oppositional identity. The controversies concerning social class and race are mutually exclusive. The American society stratifies its population in terms of social alignment. Several markers define social class ...

Cultural differences exist in every society in the world. These cultures manifest in various institutions such as industrial work places, business areas, and most important school institutions.

Introduction

Teenage pregnancy in modern societies is being viewed as a dysfunctional. Historically, across cultures it was discovered to be functional since teenage couples were encouraged to begin raising a family very early.

This research project hopes to explore how appropriate this perception of when pregnancy should occur and the damnation cast on teenage pregnancy in our modern world.

Abstract

There are many theoretical assumptions pertaining to social change form classical, intermediary and contemporary sociological schools of thought. Even physiology; psychology, metaphysics; spiritual physics attempt explanations of social change from their paradigm of existence.

In the following pages of this mini exposition the writer will examine social change by making comparisons between traditional and modern urban societies; relating responses to this phenomenon by advancing suggestions on how we as a society can deal with the not so ...

A. Brief Overview of “Is Hooking Up bad for Young Women?”

Several authors look at the sex culture in today’s youths in comparison to the baby boomers. Jessica Valenti(2010) for instance argues that the problem with America today is not the casual sex as it is not new but the moral panic that exists. The mass media has driven sociologists and psychologists to investigate young hookups even more closely. Statistics by CDC and the NHSLS show that young adults today are having far less sex than the baby boomers. Hookups are not free for all as portrayed by the media but is rather a safe manoeuvre by young adults ...

Examples of Inequality and Stratification

Social inequality describes the extent of the differences between various groups in the society (Sernau, 2010). In many societies worldwide, differences among people not only create diverse communities but also establish variations in their access to various opportunities and income sources (Western, et al., 2012). Consequently, the social differences create strata or layers in the society. In the UK, for example, social stratification is observed in the class system where individuals with similar characteristics belong to a particular social class (Savage, et al., 2013). A typical example of social inequality in the UK is the social difference involving wealth ...

It is innately human to err, as the popular adage states, especially in prejudging people’s characteristics that have a direct impact on an individual’s prestige, esteem and intellect. As such, there seems to be a predisposition to measure actions of others based on existing social norms, and that veering away from such norms allows a person to be evaluated, accurately or otherwise. In this regard, the main categories for prejudging other people fall under wealth, social status and level of intelligence; all of which seem to serve as norms for the society to evaluate a person’s level of morality. Hence, ...

The Law of Supply

The law of supply states that with an increase in the price of goods, the quantity supplied will increase and as the prices reduce, the quantity supplied will reduce, ceteris paribus. The implication here is that the price of a commodity, and the quantity that is supplied are directly related. Here, the quantity of goods that is supplied refer to some units that the buyers are willing and able to buy. This law rests on the assumption that all the other factors, save for the price of the commodity, which affect the supply of the goods remain the same. The ...

It’s about living in the now. It’s about not taking life too seriously. It’s about going out with a bang. This is pop art and it exploded through classical and traditional art. Pop art is modern, ironic and colorful with a twist of reality. While looking at pop art, instant gratification burst and it caused a release of endorphins. It’s fun, sassy, and bright. It is art with an attitude. Pop artists created their works using vivid images of everyday modern life. It was art that society could easily relate. The pop culture was able to penetrate to ...

Black Boys and underachievement: Myth or Reality?

Introduction Since the decade of the 1960s, the families of black Caribbean boys have been particularly concerned about the academic performance of their children. The reason for this is due to an apparent gap between these Afro-Caribbean children and other students, especially white ones (National Union of Teachers | NUT | The Teachers' Union, 2007). Today, their scholastic success at the attainment at General Certificate of Secondary Education (GCSE) remains well below the national average. In 2006, 44.9 percent of these children gained five good GCSEs or their equal compared to 57.3 percent of white students (DfES, 2007). The figures ...
